Nice. It was very nice for the short time, the owners were incredibly friendly although I feel it should have been emphasized early on that no smoking is allowed on the property. It wasn't shown anywhere, so it was a bit unpleasant.

Lekker. Dit was baie lekker vir die kort tydjie, die eienaars was verskriklik vriendelik alhoewel ek voel dit moes vroegtydig beklemtoon word dat geen rokery toegelaat word op die eiendom nie. Dit was nerens aangetoon nie, so dit was bietjie onaangenaam.

Hello Candice Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We are working on the clarity of the non-smoking policy. It seems to me that it appears on our English information, but not on the Afrikaans page. Sorry about that.

Hello Candice Dankie vir julle resensie. Ons is bly julle het die verblyf by ons geniet. Ons is besig om te werk aan die duidelikheid van die nie-rook beleid. Lyk my dit verskyn wel op ons Engelse inligting, maar nie op die Afrikaanse blad nie. Jammer daaroor.

Still my best so far, peaceful area. Just make a TV that's all. Otherwise good enough for a temporary vacation spot. Will go there again anytime, even if I have to bring my own TV. Thank you Cork Tree Cottage you made my holiday.

Nog my beste so ver, rustige area. Makeer net 'n TV dis al. Anders goed genoeg vir 'n tydelike vakansieplek. Sal enige tyd weer daar gaan sal selfs moet ek my eie TV saamneem. Dankie Cork Tree Cottage julle het my vakansie gemaak.

Awful experience. Struggled with warm water. The owner was arrogant.

Hi Chelsey We are sorry to hear that you had an awful experience staying at Cork Tree Cottage. As clearly stated on our booking site, we have a no-smoking policy. The owner kindly requested you to please refrain from smoking. We do not consider that arrogant.

Hallo Chelsea Ons is jammer om te hoor dat jy 'n aaklige ervaring gehad het om by Cork Tree Cottage te bly. Soos duidelik gestel op ons besprekingswebwerf, het ons 'n nie-rookbeleid. Die eienaar het u vriendelik versoek om asseblief nie te rook nie. Ons beskou dit nie as arrogant nie.

We were very comfortable and it is a beautiful property. We were greeted at the gate by the owner, she was very friendly. The accommodation is beautiful, we had everything we needed. Beautiful swimming pool and it was nice and peaceful. There is no television but that did not bother us because there was load shedding anyway.

We had an amazing time at Cork Tree Cottage. The Lourensford market down the road was very nice and the Nature Reserve is around the corner. Really a winner! The hospitality was great, very friendly hosts. I would definitely go again.

We had a very peaceful time. Nice swimming and sitting next to the fire and visiting. Lovely bed and good location close to the wine farms.

Ons het 'n baie rustige tyd gehad. Lekker geswem en langs die vuur gesit en kuier. Heerlike bed en goeie ligging na aan die wynplase.

Cork Tree Cottage is secure and the surroundings are wonderfully quiet. The surroundings are wonderfully beautiful with mountains and vineyards. The accommodation is far from the Mall and beach area, but still offers silence and safety to switch off.

Cork Tree Cottage is veilig en die omgewing is wonderlik stil. Die omgewing is wonderskoon met berge en wingerde. Die verblyf is ver van die Mall en strandgebied, maar bied tog stilte en veiligheid om af te skakel.

Thank you Kid, We are indeed in a wonderfully beautiful and relatively safe environment. Everything is relative to what one is used to. People in the city again think 7.4 km to the Mall and 8.7 km to the beach are close. Friendly greeting, Liesl and Pieter

Dankie Bokkie, Ons is inderdaad in 'n wonderskoon en relatief veilige omgewing. Alles is mos maar relatief tot waaraan mens gewoond is. Mense in die stad dink weer 7.4 km tot by die Mall en 8.7 km tot by die strand is naby. Vriendelike groete, Liesl en Pieter

I won't be staying here again. Stayed 2 separate nights and they didn't clean after the first night's stay, didn't empty the garbage, or replace the towels, or even made the bed when I returned there the second time.

Ek sal nie weer hier oornag nie. Het 2 aande hier geslaap, wat nie op mekaar volg nie, daar is glad nie skoongemaak na die eerste aand se verblyf, asblik nie uitgegooi, handdoeke nie vervang, bed nie eers opgemaak.

Janine, we are surprised and truly sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with your recent stay at Cork Tree Cottage. However, please note the difference between a self-catering unit compared to a hotel where rooms are serviced daily. We offer and advertise very clearly a self-catering unit. We do not advertise anywhere that we service our guests' unit daily during short-term stays and are therefore sorry that you could have such a wrong expectation. To clarify, self-catering means that unfortunately we do not make our guests' beds for them daily, do not replace towels after only 1 use and generally only clean after our guests have finally checked out. As communicated to you upon your initial arrival, we did not have other guests during the 2 nights you did not stay with us. That's why we offered that you could leave some of your personal items safely with us, if you wanted to. From that we understood that you realize that we leave the guest unit to you just like that from your first night's stay up to and including your return after 2 days. Thus the reason we didn't do more cleaning in between than washing your dirty dishes for you. The cleanliness for which you give us only one star was therefore not due to anything we neglected to do before or after the time, but just how you yourselves left the unit between your first and second arrival. We feel the 14 out of 17 reviews of other guests who gave us 5 stars for cleanliness (and the other 3 guests who gave us 4 stars) had a more realistic expectation and were therefore not unduly disappointed. You may have to consider hotel accommodation rather than self-catering in the future.

Janine, ons is verbaas en opreg jammer om te hoor dat julle nie tevrede was met julle onlangse verblyf by Cork Tree Cottage nie. Let egter asb op die verskil tussen 'n selfsorg eenheid in vergelyking met 'n hotel waar kamers daagliks gediens word. Ons bied en adverteer baie duidelik 'n selfsorg eenheid. Ons adverteer nêrens dat ons ons gaste eenheid daagliks diens gedurende korttermyn verblyf nie en is dus jammer dat julle so 'n verkeerde verwagting kon hê. Ter verduideliking beteken selfsorg dat ons ongelukkig nie ons gaste se beddens daagliks vir hulle opmaak nie, nie handdoeke vervang na slegs 1 maal se gebruik nie en oor die algemeen eers skoonmaak na ons gaste finaal uitgeboek het. Soos met julle aanvanklike aankoms aan julle gekommunikeer is, het ons nie ander gaste gehad gedurende die 2 nagte wat julle nie by ons oornag het nie. Daarom het ons aangebied dat julle van julle persoonlike items veilig by ons kon los, indien julle sou wou. Daaruit het ons verstaan julle besef dat ons die gaste eenheid net so vir julle los van julle eerste aand se verblyf tot en met julle terugkeer na 2 dae. Aldus die rede dat ons nie tussenin meer skoongemaak het as om julle vuil skottelgoed vir julle te was nie. Die netheid waarvoor julle vir ons net een ster gee, was dus nie te danke aan iets wat ons nagelaat het om vooraf of na die tyd te doen nie, maar net hoe julle self die eenheid gelos het tussen julle eerste en tweede aankoms. Ons voel die 14 uit 17 resensies se ander gaste wat vir ons 5 sterre vir netheid gegee het (en die ander 3 gaste wat vir ons 4 sterre gegee het), het 'n meer realistiese verwagting gehad en was dus nie onnodig teleurgesteld nie. Moontlik moet julle in die toekoms eerder hotelverblyf as selfsorg oorweeg.
